Focused ion beam apparatus

摘要

In order to implement faster high precision milling and high resolution image observation in the structure analysis and failure analysis of the MEMS and semiconductor devices, a two-lens optical system is mounted on a focused ion beam apparatus, and in the optical system the distance from an emitter apex in an ion source to an earth electrode included in a condenser lens and disposed nearest to the ion source is in the range of 5 to 14 mm.
